7. Baltimore Orioles

Record: 18-12, Last Week: No. 7, The Breakdown: Ok, we've got good news and bad news. Baltimore won the series against the Yankees earlier this week and split the double header against Oakland on Saturday. The squad is still sitting in first place in the AL East and their home record continues to be pretty darn impressive. The bad news? Pitching. Baltimore is facing a pitching crisis of sorts, staring down a rotation that is short on starting pitchers. Orioles manager Buck Showalter told the Baltimore Sun on Sunday: "All things are in play — and I mean all." It's a problem to keep an eye on and one that might hurt the Orioles going forward.
